Our Team
HEAD PASTORS
It all started with a yes.
Meet Pastors Dave & Renee Salgado — El Paso natives who once followed God’s call to Albuquerque, only to be called back home in 2017. What began as a step of faith has become Legacy Church: a place built on the belief that home isn’t just where you live, it’s where you’re called to lead, love, and grow together.
